Actually Flatfish, you have become a noun, a new technical term.

A Wintroll who posts an "expert opinion" based on very brief attempts
to INSTALL Linux on a machine that seems almost DESIGNED NOT TO RUN
LINUX.

Of course, this would be done with no requests for help, that contained
any information that would allow anyone familiar with Linux to do
anything other than discover that the hardware listed was actually
documented as "Not Supported" on various Linux compatibility lists.

Then this "Expert" now concludes that Linux is unfit for human
consumption.

The one amusing thing is that it is getting harder and harder to find
ready-made computers from Dell, Lenovo, HP, Toshiba, or Sony that WON'T
run Linux, especially AMD-64 based machines.

The poster is "A Flatfish".

He may, or may not be, the "Real" flatfish.
